Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

THIS DR ONLY CARES ABOUT MONEY AND NOT YOU!!!! YOU CAN GET THE SAME SERVICE FROM SOMEONE ELSE WHO CARES AND WILL FIGHT YOUR INSURANCE TO PAY FOR ALL COVERAGE! Dr Lantsman and her assistant led me on for months telling me they would take into consideration seeing me and I waited, and waited severely ill hoping that she would have an opening while options were limited in the middle of a pandemic and in a panic. September came and I finally got a hold of her assistant who was avoiding my calls and emails. She advised me that Dr Lantsman would not be accepting me as a new patient and that I would need to find care elsewhere. I was mortified that they led me on for 8 months, severely ill and in the middle of a pandemic. Fortunately, I met someone who referred to their Lyme literate Dr who trained under Dr Horowitz and began a multi - IV antibiotic treatment that he fought to get covered by insurance. He also fought for my LTD -disability etc., which all got accepted. I thank god for Dr!

I have been a patient if Dr Lantsman for almost two years now. For ten years I saw doctor after doctor for symptoms that became worse over time. No one was able to find a reason for my symptoms; in fact the primary care physician I had for twenty five years told me she had done every possible test, and she was washing her hands of me. I got to the point of accepting that feeling better was not an option. At the urging of a family member I saw Dr Lantsman. I can honestly say I have been given my life back! Dr Lantsman has worked with me tirelessly to help me regain my health. She is brilliant and kind, and always accessible. I look forward to my visits with her and her administrative assistant. I cannot recommend Dr Lantsman more highly. You do have to pay out of pocket, but she provides the billing information to submit to your insurance company. And she works with you to help lower the cost of testing, medications and supplements. For next, regaining my health and stamina has

I was diagnosed in 2017 with seven tick borne illnesses--lyme, bartonella, babesia, mycoplasma, pneumoniae, anaplasma, and erlichia--following two tick bites. If I was not under the care of Dr. Lantsman, I probably would have died, because no other doctor could figure out what was wrong with me. I saw multiple specialists before finding Dr. Lantsman and they were useless. Dr. Lantsman knew the right tests to run based on my symptoms and the correct laboratories to use. I have been under her care for almost two years and have recommended her to everyone I know with infectious disease symptoms. She is incredible!

After my son's tick bite 3 years ago, and a pediatrician who refused to test him because she said Lyme was bunk, we finally found Dr. Lantsman, who tested and diagnosed him. His labs were conclusive for Lyme and co-infections! When I first brought him in, he had trouble speaking/stuttering, was too fatigued to play sports, and flunking in school. Today he is a vibrant, athletic student with straight A's who is a star on his basketball team. Dr. Lantsman saved my son's life.

Dr. Lantsman helped me get my life back when I was completely bedridden for months on end with Lyme Disease. I have seen countless lyme doctors for years, and she is by far, the best and most thorough. She looks at the entire picture and your overall health in order get an understanding of what's going on. She makes herself accessible to her patients which is extremely important when you are going through a health crisis. She is honest, patient and she CARES. I am so grateful for her.

After traveling to 4 out of state clinicians (experts in the field)Dr L was the first to actually listen and collaborate with us to develop a treatment plan that was both gentle and aggressive enough to allow flow with the ebbs and flows of life. In our opinion Dr L gave him his life back... marriage, med school and busy life! Her commitment, Compassion and Grace are absolutely unsurpassable! Forever grateful for her inquisitive mind and continuous care! Highly recommend!!

Dr. Lantsman is a most knowledgable and compassionate doctor I have met. She has taken care of me and after dozens of doctors could not help me actually cured me with correct diagnosis and careful and diligent treatment. I am lucky to have found her.
